Using course pages
After the course page has been started, instructors and volunteers should add themselves in their respective roles in the Summary section.
Wiki Ed supported classes will also see the name of a Wikipedia Content Expert assigned to their class, whose Wikipedia username will be followed by (Wiki Ed).
Students should be given the URL of the course page along with the enrollment token. They can then sign up as students in the course (once they have created their Wikipedia accounts).
The students should enter links to the article(s) they are working on to the Students section (a table at the bottom of the course page). They can also list classmates' articles that they will peer review.
Use the "Activity Feed" to see recent activity from your students from your course page.
This feed can be reached from anywhere on Wikipedia, too: near your username as "Courses". You can enable or disable the link by going to Preferences > Misc and selecting "Show a link to your courses at the top of every page".
